Missing the twinkle of your smile

There used to be a twinkle. A unique way you would smile. It lit up my heart and a smile was always there in return. Now I see the twinkle but it is not for me... I know you have told me that you are not ready for something serious, but I feel a part of me has died. One of my favorite parts. I hope that I can bring the twinkle back, I hope to earn it because I try to be what you need even when what you need is my absence. You are so important to me and the intensity of my heart dwindles to see that someone else is becoming your focus.

If I could change one thing about myself it would be my selfish want for you to need me in your life.

Not for me but for you...
